"When you are a low-income woman and self-employed as a cleaner, juggling family and work becomes extra-complicated. This is especially the case when you lack control over your contractual relationships with clients. “Up & Go” depicts the huge benefits in terms of income, job security and work life that have been generated by an app owned by a worker cooperative."

Government thus winds up protecting the “right” of industrialism to externalize costs and subsidize itself at the expense of labor and everyone and everything else.

Regime change is called for -- one of the best, because most peaceable, ways to begin to achieve this, is by choosing to work for one another, both in trades and in nonprofits, cooperatively rather than for "The Man."

It would be absurd to suppose that it is the task of cooperativism to create a new order... Cooperativism can not transform and overcome capitalism, but the united working class can, forming itself through the organization of its own work. -Joxe Azurmendi

Got a copy of Empresas Cooperativas y Economía de Mercado by @luisrazeto . May have to add this to my list of books to translate , after La Communauté Politique des Tous Uns, by Abensour, and Adieux au Capitalisme by Baschet. Empresas addresses interesting questions: what is #cooperativism? How can cooperativism become a movement? How can it become economically integrated? What is the role of cooperativism in the current multidimensional crisis? But mostly it's econ. theory.

With or without class: Resolving Marx’s Janus-faced interpretation of worker-owned cooperatives

"It is the presence or lack of this focus on developing and mobilizing class consciousness, not the nature of the labor institution itself (i.e. cooperative or union), that Marx believed to most powerfully shape the radical or degenerative tendencies of local forms of labor activism."

Today's work: completing translation of Unit 3 of Creation of Associative and Solidarity Enterprises by @luisrazeto

It is an important book for understanding the practical implications and implementation of concepts like the C Factor, as well as a directly useful guide for co-op self-development.
